WAX601 PoE
Hi I am looking for the right Netgear Switch that goes with the WAX6, because mine does not work (does not have PoE+). Would that be an option? https://www.netgear.com/business/wired/swit...

The GS108Tv3 (GS108T-300PES) is a 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Switch with optional Cloud Management, and has no PoE capabilities. You might have the option to add a power supply near to the WAX610 installation point.

The GS308EPP is a 8-Port High-Power PoE+ Gigabit Ethernet Plus Switch with some configuration features.
The Smart Switch counterpart would be the for example the GS110TPv3 — 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Ethernet Smart Switch with 2 SFP Ports and Cloud Management

To power the WAX610, a PoE switch with 802.3at is sufficient. Considering possible bandwidth for the WAX610 is going beyond a simple Gigabit Ethernet 2.5Gbps PoE port might be considerable. From the pure PoE requirements view, the unmanaged GS308EP could be sufficient.

Thank you very much

I ask because I have a Netgear GS108T-300PES (8 Ports) and it does not work with the WAX610 (PoE not sufficient).
So I am looking for the best replacement for it.
Thanks for help

Thank you very much for your answer.
Good to know about the GS108Tv3 - it was sold to me as one with PoE capabilities.
As I am no specialist and do not want to buy again items that are useless to me, permit me a question about the Switch I should choose in order to run the WAX610 over PoE (and not with a power device).
The Switch I am looking for must:
- be managed
- have enough PoE-Power to drive the WAX610 and/or a GS108Tv3 (if that is possible)
So do I understand you right: The GS110TPv3 — 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ is like the GS108Tv3 PLUS PoE+?
Thank you for your help - it is highly appreciated
All the best
